4.17.10

Joshua 15:1-63

15:⁶³ As for the Jebusites, the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the children of Judah could not drive them out; but the Jebusites dwell with the children of Judah at Jerusalem to this day.

John - They could not drive out the Jebusites? ... Could not drive them out - Namely, because of their unbelief, as Christ could do no mighty work, because of the peoples unbelief, Mark 6:5,6 Matt 13:58... But this was before David's time, when the Jebusites were quite expelled, and their fort taken. David BELIEVED!


Luke 18:18-43

18:⁴² Then Jesus said to him, “Receive your sight; your faith has made you well.” ⁴³ And immediately he received his sight, and followed Him, glorifying God. And all the people, when they saw it, gave praise to God.

John - Notice Jesus keeps pointing people back to THEIR faith... That what made you well... YOUR FAITH..


Psalm 86:1-17

86:3 For great is Your mercy toward me,
And You have delivered my soul from the depths of Sheol.

John - This is one immeasurable truth! His mercy is great toward me & you!

Proverbs 13:9-10

13:⁹ The light of the righteous rejoices,
But the lamp of the wicked will be put out.
¹⁰ By pride comes nothing but strife,
But with the well-advised is wisdom.

John - One of God great gifts is giving us others to help us be "well-advised"
